BBC BASIC was created for the BBC Computer Literacy Project in the United Kingdom and was supplied as standard on all home microcomputers produced by Acorn Computers. Programs are stored as a series of tokens - in memory these begin at the address specified by PAGE, whose value can also be read and modified from BASIC. The end address of the current program is held by the TOP variable.
